We were recently in Mystic, CT, passing through on our way to a wedding. Mystic is a quaint little town, with some very good shopping, a bustling town center, an old drawbridge that just might trap you on one side or the other, as well as the Mystic Aquarium. There is a lot to do Continue reading Dining Review: Captain Daniel Packer Inne in Mystic, CT https://www.redwineplease.com/visit-to-the-biltmore-estate-february-2019/ 
It’s been several years since we visited the largest privately owned house in America, nestled into the hillsides of Asheville, N.C., with expansive views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and a combination of history, relaxation and outdoor activity that makes for a splendid getaway. I am talking, of course, about the Biltmore Estate. George W.

Recently out shopping for furniture near our new home in North Carolina, we followed a recommendation and stopped in at Assaggio’s Italian Restaurant, in Raleigh, N.C., for a late lunch. The restaurant is located at the back of a small plaza, tucked away a little, so be careful not to miss it. It was pretty Continue reading Dining Review – Assaggio’s Italian Restaurant in Raleigh, N.C. https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-stellinos-italiano-in-cary-n-c/ 
We’ve just moved to Morrisville, N.C., and are starting to get out and sample the local restaurant scene. As such, we’ll likely be reviewing quite a few in the near future. In this article we’ll take a look at Stellino’s Italiano, which we ate dinner at last week after a long day of unpacking, and Continue reading Dining Review – Stellino’s Italiano in Cary, N.C. https://www.redwineplease.com/restaurant-review-matadora-a-bit-of-spain-in-woburn-massachusetts/ 
On a recent business trip I found myself dining at Matadora, inside the Hilton Boston/Woburn Hotel in Woburn, MA. This is a Spanish Tapas restaurant with a comfortable, open and modern vibe. The night I was there a solo performer playing guitar and singing Spanish songs added to the authentic atmosphere. The restaurant is located Continue reading Restaurant Review – Matadora: A Bit of Spain in Woburn, Massachusetts https://www.redwineplease.com/restaurant-reviews-in-and-around-chatham-ma-february-2018/ 
On a recent getaway to Cape Cod, one of our traditional stomping grounds, we went to a few restaurants in and around Chatham, Massachusetts. The experiences were quite different, some good and some bad. Here we’ll give you a quick review for your consideration, if you should find yourself in the area and in need Continue reading Restaurant Reviews: In and Around Chatham, MA – February 2018 https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-basta-on-broad-in-cranston-ri/ 
Sometimes in life you look back on something and wonder, “why did it take us so long to do this?” It could be a simple thing around the house, a minor, inexpensive thing that makes life easier, or a place you’ve always meant to go but just didn’t seem to get to. Here we’ll cross Continue reading Dining Review – Basta on Broad in Cranston, RI https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-cucina-rustica-in-cranston-ri/ 
We haven’t done a dining review in a while. That’s a little unusual, as we haven’t stopped eating. It’s just that there has been so much wine to talk about. So let’s take a little time and catch up on a restaurant review or two. We’ll start with Cucina Rustica on Atwood Avenue in Cranston, Continue reading Dining Review – Cucina Rustica in Cranston, RI https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-baba-sushi-hot-pot-in-sturbridge-ma/ 
A really good sushi restaurant is hard to find. In Worcester, MA, Baba Sushi has gained a reputation for being just that. We’re not in Worcester very often, but we are frequently in Sturbridge, MA, and it so happens that Baba Sushi opened a second location in this quaint town. This could turn out to Continue reading Dining Review – Baba Sushi & Hot Pot in Sturbridge, MA https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-saffron-in-morrisville-nc/ 
Over the Christmas holiday we found ourselves in Morrisville, NC, visiting family. One of our forays out for food brought us to Saffron, in a strip mall near a Harris Teeter supermarket. The setting screamed strip mall food, and the inside really didn’t scream anything differently, but the proof is what’s on the plate. The Continue reading Dining Review – Saffron in Morrisville, NC |
